Rio de Estrelas Camping is located on the Cerrito/Sanga Seca Line in Maquiné, 150 km from Porto Alegre, and is perfect for backpackers and travelers looking for simple but cozy accommodation. We are located in one of the most peaceful spots in the region, close to Serra do Umbu, with the Maquiné River passing in front of the property, providing our guests with an experience of tranquility, peace and great contact with nature. @riodeestrelascamping /riodeestrelas The space We have free parking, a shared kitchen with all utensils (open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.), two mixed bathrooms with cold showers, a bathroom with hot water and barbecue grills. The Maquiné River passes in front of the campsite, and the outdoor area near the river has a large lawn with shade for camping. We also have a camping area on the hillside, in the middle of the woods and another by the river. In front of the campsite passes the Maquiné River, with small wells and rapids, ideal for cooling off.

We are 7 km from the district of Barra do Ouro, which is wedged between the canyons of Serra Geral, 70 meters above sea level, following the RS-484, on the Cerrito/Sanga Seca Line. The place where the campsite is located is a region close to Serra do Umbu and because we are in a mountain region, away from the city lights, we have a much better view of the stars, making it possible to see most of the constellations and even the Milky Way.
